Abstract

The information processing apparatus 10 acquires biological information of a passenger 55 who has disembarked from an aircraft. The information processing apparatus 10 acquires flight information corresponding to the acquired biological information from a storage device 52 in which the biological information of the passenger 55 and the flight information of the passenger 55 are stored in association with each other. Then, the information processing apparatus 10 determines, based on the acquired flight information, whether the passenger 55 is a passenger who is to re-board an aircraft after disembarking from the aircraft. The information processing apparatus 10 displays information according to the determination result on display devices 53 and 54.

First claim

1 . An information processing apparatus comprising:
at least one memory storing instructions; and at least one processor configured to execute the instructions to: acquire biological information of a passenger who has disembarked from an aircraft; acquire flight information corresponding to the acquired biological information from a storage device in which the biological information of the passenger and the flight information of the passenger are stored in association with each other in advance; determine, based on the acquired flight information, whether the passenger is a passenger who is to re-board an aircraft after disembarking from the aircraft; acquire a re-boarding time from disembarkation to re-boarding based on the flight information if the passenger is a re-boarding passenger; determine an activity to perform before re-boarding, which is to be suggested to the passenger, based on the re-boarding time, and generate information on the activity, if the passenger is a re-boarding passenger; generate information regarding re-boarding based on the flight information if the passenger is a re-boarding passenger; display information corresponding to a determination result on a display device, display the information on the activity and the information regarding re-boarding on one display screen, if the passenger is a re-boarding passenger; and display only the information regarding re-boarding, if the re-boarding time is less than a predetermined time.

2 . The information processing apparatus according to claim 1 ,
wherein the biological information includes face image data obtained by capturing the face of the passenger looking at the display device.

3 . An information processing method comprising:
acquiring biological information of a passenger who has disembarked from an aircraft; acquiring flight information corresponding to the acquired biological information from a storage device in which the biological information of the passenger and the flight information of the passenger are stored in association with each other; determining, based on the acquired flight information, whether the passenger is a passenger who is to re-board an aircraft after disembarking from the aircraft; acquiring a re-boarding time from disembarkation to re-boarding based on the flight information if the passenger is a re-boarding passenger; determining an activity to perform before re-boarding, which is to be suggested to the passenger, and generating information on the activity, if the passenger is a re-boarding passenger; generating information regarding re-boarding based on the flight information if the passenger is a re-boarding passenger; displaying information corresponding to a determination result on a display device; displaying the information on the activity and the information regarding re-boarding on one display screen, if the passenger is a re-boarding passenger; and displaying only the information regarding re-boarding, if the re-boarding time is less than a predetermined time.

4 . The information processing method according to claim 3 ,
wherein the biological information includes face image data obtained by capturing the face of the passenger looking at the display device.

5 . A non-transitory computer readable recording medium including a program recorded thereon, the program including instructions that cause a computer to carry out:
acquiring biological information of a passenger who has disembarked from an aircraft; acquiring flight information corresponding to the acquired biological information from a storage device in which the biological information of the passenger and the flight information of the passenger are stored in association with each other; determining, based on the acquired flight information, whether the passenger is a passenger who is to re-board an aircraft after disembarking from the aircraft; acquiring a re-boarding time from disembarkation to re-boarding based on the flight information if the passenger is a re-boarding passenger; determining an activity to perform before re-boarding, which is to be suggested to the passenger, and generating information on the activity, if the passenger is a re-boarding passenger; generating information regarding re-boarding based on the flight information if the passenger is a re-boarding passenger; displaying information corresponding to a determination result on a display device; displaying the information on the activity and the information regarding re-boarding on one display screen, if the passenger is a re-boarding passenger; and displaying only the information regarding re-boarding, if the re-boarding time is less than a predetermined time.

6 . The non-transitory computer readable recording medium according to claim 5 ,
wherein the biological information includes face image data obtained by capturing the face of the passenger looking at the display device.
